they are in the fridge in the store so in the fridge at home. It slows down the aging of the egg. Talk to a chicken farmer or egg producer. Near freezing can keep an embryo on 'pause' for quite some time until more demand is asked...

I know in places like Cuba they are not refrigerated - but they are usually always fresh as well and consumed within a day of being taken from the hen.

Its recommended in baking to leave your egg come to room temperature - around 30 minutes - for best flavor. I usually do this and it does make cookies and cakes a bit fluffier. never tried with a fried or boiled though.

I don't keep eggs in the fridge. First thing I do when I get a new fridge (as un-often as that is) is throw away the little egg holder.

I keep my eggs in a large chicken-shaped ceramic bowl on a window sill in the kitchen. :p

If your grocery store doesn't keep eggs in the refrigerated section, they're doing it wrong. And I would never go to that store again. Eggs, dairy, and meat should always be refrigerated.

The Tesco I go to doesn't store eggs in fridges...

The eggs that I buy from any of our big super markets are NEVER kept in a refrigerated area. I have been buying eggs for close to 36 years and have been eating them for more than 50 years and have never gotten ill or that I can remember, had a rotten egg! When they come home I do put them in the fridge, 24 eggs last us about 2 weeks. I also know many people who buy eggs that weren't refrigerated and also don't put them into the fridge when they get them home and nothing ever happens to these people either!

I keep mine in the fridge.

I used to read books on long distance solo sailing, and the majority of sailors stored theirs unrefridgerated, but they coated them with vasaline.

Apparently, egg shells are porous, allowing air inside. If you seal the egg shell, they can be stored, almost indefinitely, similar to some canned goods!

I learnt to keep them out of the fridge, usually near the bread.

My girlfriend says they belong in the fridge, which is why you get the egg sections. But supermarkets have them in the non-refrigerated section?

Eggs - where do you keep yours?

which supermarkets?? I've been buying eggs for years in several stores in this city and they are always refridgerated.

    • If you don't care to read what I said, then you prove my point. Maybe written media is beyond your attention span. Titles are not summaries my friend.
    • Nobody asked... in fact, I said "I don't care about political leanings"  
    • TLDR. Here is a far better title (just a basic example): Windows 11 26H2 to allow disabling Web search results
    • Restore will get my vote, only if to see if things are any different, doubt it though but Labour and Conservatives too out of touch and same thing over and over and over…, Lib Dem who?
    • There is nothing wrong with this title. You have completely missed the plot when it comes to "clickbait." The issue was never that a title tries to entice you to click, that is how titles have worked for over 100 years. The issue is when the title subverts expectations, getting you to click expecting something that isn't there. The classic clickbait example is "Boyfriend caught cheating, what happens next will shock you," then what happened next is the girlfriend was upset...which is probably the least shocking outcome imaginable. If sounds like what you want is for the titles to be a collection of 10-word summaries that you can skim, get the just of the story, and only click if you want more details. That is not, never has been, and never will be what titles are. You can go all the way back to print newspapers during the great depression and see the same thing. The newspaper was locked in a vending machine, all you can see is the headline, you choose to put in 5¢ to buy the paper and read the rest if you want. Those headlines were written in a way to sell the paper, not just to provide a summery. Here are two actual headlines from that time, "Wall Street Lays an Egg," or "Stocks Hit Bottom?" Maybe you'd say something like "it was wrong then and it's still wrong now." Okay, fine opinion to have, but it isn't like Neowin is doing something unjurnalistic, they are just following the age-old standards for written media.
